Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - Horatio Alger, Jr., an author who lived among and for boys and himself remained a boy in heart and association till death, was born at Revere, Mass., January 18, 1884. He was the son of a clergyman; was graduated at Harvard College in 1852, and at its Divinity School in 1860; and was pastor of the Unitarian Church at Brewster, Mass., in 1862-66. In the latter year he settled in New York and began drawing public attention to the condition and needs of street boys. He mingled with them, gained their confidence, showed a personal concern in their affairs, and stimulated them to honest and useful living. With his first story he won the hearts of all red-blooded boys every-where, and of the seventy or more that followed over a million copies were sold during the author's lifetime.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Horatio Jr. Alger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1421801418\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781421801414\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e 1st World Library - Literary Society\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/12\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.59d","brand":"Horatio Jr. Alger","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44064684933375,"sku":"9781421801414","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aba9c1d3-3db9-49d1-93c2-b1e41b93c869.jpg?v=1685396943","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bound-to-rise-horatio-alger-jr-9781421801414","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
